About this trial
This is a 36-month, multicentric, cross-sectional study involving a paediatric population aged 6 to 17 years. Three groups will be included:
Group A: children from the general population with no complaints of sleepiness; Group B: children with a sleep disorder or excessive sleepiness associated with a medical condition (narcolepsy, circadian rhythm sleep disorder (CRSD), non-REM parasomnias, attention deficit disorder with or without hyperactivity (ADHD), autism spectrum disorder (ASD) or obesity); Group C: healthy volunteers with no medical conditions or sleep-related complaints.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Internal consistency of the Epworth Sleepiness Scale for Children and Adolescents (ESEA-E and ESEA-A)
The ESEA is a self-assessment questionnaire adapted from the Epworth Sleepiness Scale. It evaluates daytime sleepiness in common daily situations. Scores range from 0 to 30. Internal consistency will be assessed using Cronbach's alpha. The analysis will be performed separately for: * ESEA-E (children aged 6-11 years) * ESEA-A (adolescents aged 12-17 years) Each Cronbach's alpha coefficient will be reported independently for each scale version.
Internal consistency of the Idiopathic Hypersomnia Severity Scale (IHSS) for children and adolescents(IHSS-E and IHSS-A)
IHSS : A self-administered 14-item questionnaire assessing hypersomnolence, evaluating excessive sleepiness, daytime fatigue, and difficulty maintaining wakefulness, as well as their impact on academic, social, and daily functioning. Internal consistency will be assessed using Cronbach's alpha. The analysis will be performed separately for: IHSS-E (children aged 6-11 years) IHSS-A (adolescents aged 12-17 years). Each Cronbach's alpha coefficient will be reported independently for each scale version.
Internal consistency of the Pediatric Daytime Sleepiness Scale (PDSS) for children (6-11 years)
PDSS (6-11) is an 8-item self-administered questionnaire adapted from the PDSS for older children. It measures daytime sleepiness and its impact on daily functioning, especially at school, based on the frequency of fatigue and sleep episodes. Scores range from 0 to 32. Internal consistency will be assessed using Cronbach's alpha.
Internal consistency of the French Sleepiness Scale for children (FSSC-8)
FSSC-8 an 8-item self-administered questionnaire adapted from the validated adolescent version (FSSA-8) to assess daytime sleepiness in children. It evaluates the frequency of sleepiness episodes in daily situations. Scores range from 0 to 24.Internal consistency will be assessed using Cronbach's alpha.
Secondary outcomes
Correlation coefficients between the Idiopathic Hypersomnia Severity Scale for children and adolescents (IHSS-A and IHSS-E ) and the Pediatric Daytime Sleepiness Scale (PDSS; 12-17years).
IHSS : A self-administered 14-item questionnaire assessing hypersomnolence, evaluating excessive sleepiness, daytime fatigue, and difficulty maintaining wakefulness, as well as their impact on academic, social, and daily functioning. Versions for children (6-11 years, IHSS-E) and adolescents (12-17 years, IHSS-A) are being validated PDSS is an 8-item self-administered questionnaire adapted from the PDSS for older children. It measures daytime sleepiness and its impact on daily functioning, especially at school, based on the frequency of fatigue and sleep episodes. Scores range from 0 to 32
Correlation coefficients between the Idiopatic Hypersomnia Severity Scale (IHSS-A and IHSS-E ) and the Epworth Sleepiness Scale for Children and Adolescents (ESS-CHAD).
IHSS : A self-administered 14-item questionnaire assessing hypersomnolence, evaluating excessive sleepiness, daytime fatigue, and difficulty maintaining wakefulness, as well as their impact on academic, social, and daily functioning. Versions for children (6-11 years, IHSS-E) and adolescents (12-17 years, IHSS-A) are being validated. ESS-CHAD : an 8-item questionnaire designed to assess daytime sleepiness. Participants assign a score from 0 to 3 (0 = never; 1 = weak; 2 = moderate; 3 = strong).The minimum score is 0 and the maximum score is 24.
Correlation coefficients between the Pediatric Hypersomnolence Scale (PHS; 6-11 and 12-17 years) and the Pediatric Daytime Sleepiness Scale (PDSS; 12-17 years)
PDSS is an 8-item self-administered questionnaire adapted from the PDSS for older children. It measures daytime sleepiness and its impact on daily functioning, especially at school, based on the frequency of fatigue and sleep episodes. Scores range from 0 to 32. PHS is a 14-item self-report questionnaire assessing excessive daytime sleepiness in adolescents (12-17), in relation to school and social activities. Scores range from 0 to 42, with a pathological threshold \>24 for narcolepsy/hypersomnia. A French version for children aged 6-11 (PHS 6-11) is awaiting validation.
